| quote: | Dutch man, 69, starts legal fight to identify as 20 years younger
Motivational speaker Emile Ratelband compares bid to alter age to gender change
A 69-year-old Dutch “positivity guru” who says he does not feel his age has started a battle to make himself legally 20 years younger on the grounds that he is being discriminated against on a dating app.
Emile Ratelband told a court in Arnhem in the Netherlands that he did not feel “comfortable” with his date of birth, and compared his wish to alter it to people who identified as transgender.
...Doctors had told him his body was that of a 45-year-old man, Ratelband argued. He described himself as a “young god”. |

Oh for s sake. Trans is one thing but wanted to be identified as younger is just bollocks.
What next? A 12 year old wants to be legally identified as 21 so they can get a mortgage and buy a gun? |

All you need is an accent mark for it to work in French, too: transâge.
:tongue3 |

Exactly! And, it also sounds like something Miriam Lancewood, to pick another Dutch person, would do. Living in the wild, in a permanent state of trance, while looking très chic.
That's what transâge will always mean in my heart. |

| You can thank California for this mess. I now identify as a 65 year old paraplegic, so I can get disability and social security checks! :stongue: |

Yeah I saw this earlier
And like I said before there is a guy who identifies as a 6 year old transgender girl
So it's not as bad in comparison
